Synopsis "In God's Mercy: My Spiritual Journey (in English)"
In God's Mercy: My Spiritual Journey describes the transformation of Linda Lint, who finds her faith challenged repeatedly. Despite the favor of extraordinary spiritual experiences at critical moments in her life, she unwittingly falls into a dangerous relationship that permanently changes her life. Linda's life attests to God's overflowing divine mercy and reminds us that the most painful suffering can often lead to the greatest blessing. Like St. Paul, who found "strength for everything through him who empowers me" (Phil. 4:13), Linda overcomes a life-threatening condition in what doctors declare a miracle. Her spiritual journey begins in her native Philippines and leads through the Middle East to Pennsylvania in the United States, where she now resides with her husband, Larry, and daughter, Maryann. (FR. JIM KOFSKI)Linda Lint's account of her spiritual journey is an impressive and inspiring read. In a straightforward and captivating style, she narrates highlights of her life-some disturbing, others uplifting, but all enticing the reader to read on. Here is a work that unflinchingly portrays Lint's Catholic faith in a very positive light, boasts of the power of prayer, and demonstrates her ongoing experience of God's divine mercy. (THE REV. PATRICK MCGARRITY, C.SS.R.)I am very happy to recommend In God's Mercy: My Spiritual Journey by Linda Lint. Often we look to the saints of the past for spiritual guidance when Jesus is interested in us at the present moment. This book brings hope to those who were careless in their early years but by the grace of God have returned to the Church. Most of us have not had all the special graces given to the author but, as she explains, the mercy of God is available to all. (MONSIGNOR THOMAS SMITH, PASTOR, ST. JOSEPH CHURCH, LANCASTER, PA)Linda Lint's memoir, "In God's Mercy," is a courageous and honest recounting of God's action in her life. An encouraging testimony to the unremitting aid of Our Blessed Lady, the angels and the saints to those who seek their help and desire their constant friendship, it is an inspiration for believers and nonbelievers alike.
